Peppermint, sweet fennel and ginger have been used across traditional herbalism for centuries to support digestive comfort and ease during the menstrual cycle. Tulsi, known as holy basil, has been revered in Ayurvedic tradition as an adaptogen — a herb chosen during times of change and stress. Calendula, rosehip and rose petals have long been associated with gentle feminine wellness rituals across European and Asian traditions.

This blend was formulated specifically around the herbs most associated with feminine wellness in traditional herbal medicine. Rather than a general relaxation or digestion blend, it brings together seven botanicals — each chosen for their traditional role in supporting women through the natural rhythms of their cycle. It is intended as a daily ritual of care, not a remedy for specific symptoms.

Many women find it most comforting during the luteal phase and menstruation — the days when the body calls for warmth, rest and gentleness. That said, it makes a grounding daily ritual at any point in the cycle. Brew it in the evening, take your time with it, and use it as a moment to slow down.

Heat water to 90°C and steep one teaspoon per 250ml for 7 to 9 minutes, covered. The longer steep draws out the deeper notes of ginger and fennel. As it steeps, inhale the peppermint and fennel vapours — a gentle, grounding moment before your first sip. The colour will be a warm amber with floral depth.
